Answer:

c) Acetyl COA carboxylase; citrate

Explanation:

Citrate serves as an allosteric activator for fatty acid synthesis and diverts the cellular metabolism from the consumption of metabolic fuel to the storage of fuel as fatty acids. When the concentrations of mitochondrial acetyl-CoA and ATP increase, citrate is transported out of mitochondria into the cytosol. In the cytosol, citrate serves as the precursor of cytosolic acetyl-CoA and an allosteric activator of acetyl-CoA carboxylase.

The enzyme Acetyl-CoA carboxylase has three functional regions. Its biotin carboxylase activates CO2 and its transcarboxylase transfers activated CO2 from biotin to acetyl-CoA to produce malonyl-CoA.

oksano4ka [1.4K]

The immune response is the body's defense mechanism against the pathogens. The immune response of the body protects it from bacteria, viruses and multiple other disease causing organisms. The normal development of this protective immune response of the body is produced by as a result of the hormones which are produced by the thymus gland. The thymus gland produces the T-lymphocytes, which are important for a healthy immune response. The thymus gland secretes thymosin which is crucial for the development of these cells.
